-He came all the way from North Dakota to find me. (of course he may say it was for the skiing close by in Durango, but don't let him fool you.)
-Mr. T brought us together. (at a work Christmas party including our two offices, we had a White Elephant gift exchange and he brought a Mr. T voice-keychain. I stole it from someone else because I wanted it so bad. I didn't even know it was his gift. Turns out, he'd promised himself that if I ended up with his gift, he would ask me out. HA! I win!!)
-Mountains are our first world. (Our first date was hiking above Durango. We haven't stopped since.)
-We balance each other out when hiking. (I'm like a mountain goat on the ascent and whine like a baby when my knees are jello coming down the mountain.... He waits for me at the bottom.)
-Food is our second world. (Before we even started dating, I told him I ate Taco Bell twice a week and had KFC Mondays as part of my regular schedule. He said: "I love you! Will you marry me now?" really. he did. ) He's also a Pepsi man... need I say more. Sigh, I love this man!
-Hockey is our third world. (I've always been a big Redwings fan, but he introduced me to college hockey and the ND Fighting Sioux. I'm now an ADDICT.)
-I put him on pedestal. (I actually wait until after 8:00pm to eat dinner, waiting for him to finish his daily run. ME, wait past 5 for food. Yeah, this is TRUE LOVE)
-He put me on a REALLY high pedestal. 13,000 ft to be exact. (He proposed to me on top of Engineer Mountain on July 12, 2008. He made me work for it)
-It was meant to be, the stars were aligned. (My Horoscope for July 12 said, "Today is a good day to get engaged or married. I'm not lying!! We found out later when my mom called... Now we're going to live our lives by Star signs. :P -jk-)
-We are meant to get married in Fort Lewis Chapel on October 18th, 2008. (When I called to check the Chapel schedule, the 18th was double-booked with 2 weddings... I was super sad and SUPER stressed having a date but no place to get married in 'our' Durango like we'd planned. THEN, I called back 20 minutes later to ask about the 17th.....the coordinator told me that the 18th was now clear... from BOTH bookings!!! yeah.... I know.)
------I hope everyone is as excited as I am! To be honest, I never thought I could be so excited and so perfectly ready (more than ready) to get married to someone. Greg makes me feel loved, respected, content, comfortable, warm, happy and high on life. I am SO ready to begin our life together. (if you haven't noticed from the fact that we're planning a wedding in 3 months!)
-Love you all and wish you the same happiness that I have found!- Re
